Recycling Receipt

I never had a misunderstanding about pricing, it's pretty straightforward and the lbs on the scale shows up huge. The man and his son are always pleasant to me when I arrive, very "friendly". I started going to this location because my experience at Spring Valley recycling on Elkelton Blvd was not good, very inconsistent with hours and customers service. We all have different experiences, but my experiences with Friendly Recycling has always been good.

See all

i've been coming here a few years and just noticed them on Yelp. i saw 1 star so i need to help…read morethese guys out. 1. a 'weigh machine' is called a scale. the scale is right in front so i don't know how Tee missed it. it also weighs in 0.1 increments so the hundredths she saw were in her head. these guys are usually there 10 minutes early, but sometimes get there right at 9 and take 5 minutes to open the gate and put the baskets out. if you're time is that valuable that you can't wait 5 minutes you probably don't do your own recycling. 2. there is a SD county weights and measures seal on the scale display, it is regulated and enforced very strictly. I'm glad Tee won't be back, less wait time for me.

"No, no, no." First, the business has posted hours opening…read moreat 9 a.m.; however, they do not begin setting up until that time while people have to wait on them. Second, the older, shorter male assigned to help customers was rude. He watched me load the recycling in the dirty trash cans they set out and then later brought out wire baskets telling me to reload again. I questioned and was about to put all the recycling back in my truck, when he started to transfer items to the basket. Third, the weigh machine is positioned far from customers view, but I'm pretty sure I saw a 1.36, yet this guy only reported. 1.26 in recycling. These businesses should be regulated including that customers are able to see the weigh machine. I guess I need to look into that. Needless to say, I won't return.
